12 tenacious & triumphant runners ran 5km to help make Sheaf Valley shine in preparations for Amphifest 2017 this weekend.
Photobombed!
After a brief brief and a group photo with an extra honorary member in the background we took stock of numbers and had DASHING DAVE as our back marker for the night before heading off into the drizzle to meet LOVELY LINDA at the sparkling STEEL CITY STEPS who greeted us with grabbers and bags and told us all about Amphifest this coming weekend.
We split into two teams and for 45mins picked every bit of litter we could find totaling 12 bags! Great job everyone!
After dumping our bags we used the surrounding area of the park for some great fitness including:
Box Jumps up the Amphitheater
Stair Sprints up the Steel City Steps
Hill reps up the parks pathways
Everyone did a great job on the exercises putting in some great hard efforts which will pay dividends!
We took an alternative route back crossing GRAFFITI BRIDGE and finished with some stretching in front of our home of the SHOWROOM CINEMA
Extending our vocabulary...
Sticking around for a drink we extended our vocabulary, learning the definition of SNURGLING and reminiscing of the wonderful times of when THE ROCK was cooking and wanting all to smell his culinary delights.
Thanks so much to all who came out on the drizzly eve to help the local community prepare for this weekends festival!
Happy Running!
